Is there a way to make touch id the only way to unlock the iPhone 5s?  I don't want a password code to also be able to do so.  Thanks!

I know touch id replaces the need to input a code but I would rather only have my fingerprint as the only way to access my iphone.  Is this possible? Thanks!

Thanks Chris.  I had already read this.  It seems like Touch Id will make it faster to access a locked iphone but the security code remains an alternative option to unlock an iphone, which is what I wanted to avoid.  In other words, I would want Touch Id to be the only option to unlock my iphone but it seems like this is not an option.   
If you have a concern that someone would guess your four-digit code, try turning off Simple Passcode, and choose a complex alphanumeric passcode.  Perhaps that would help.

  • When I import photos taken from my Ipod Touch 4 to My Mac Desktop, I click delete photos on ipod, but they do not delete. Is the only way to delete them individually (I have 1,400 photos!) or is there a way to delete them all in one go?

    I realise you can you can delete them on your ipod slowly as you have to click on each one, and you can restore your ipod, but surely there is a way to get around this?

    Thanks If anyone can help me.

    Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
    3. Install another app from the App Store
    If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.
    Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

  • In LabVIEW6i, is there a way to make particular elements of an array invisible while the others stay visible (without losing any element's info.)?

    I have an array of clusters. Each cluster pertains to a certain oscilloscope I am controlling. There is another control which specifies which oscilloscopes I have "on".
    If a particular oscilloscope is "on" I want its cluster to be VISIBLE in the array. If a particular oscilloscope is "off" I want its cluster to be INVISIBLE in the array.
    How can I implement this in my program without losing ANY of the info. in my array?

    I suggest to use two arrays; one for user interface holding the ON clusters,
    and one for internal use holding all clusters. The diagram periodically
    updates the internal array with user interface array data.
    By INVISIBLE do you mean "skipped from the array" or displayed as an empty
    placeholder? To hide an OFF cluster you could put in the cluster a flat
    button boolean that is small and transparent when ON and large enough to
    cover the whole cluster area (and other controls) when OFF.

  • Is there any ways to make Mail app show prefix and suffix in the address field?

    I apologize for any inconvenience that my poor English may cause.
    I would like to ask if there is a way to make Maill app show prefix and suffix in the address field.
    This is, in my culture, very important, especially for formal situations. When I call someone such as professors, bosses, I should put prefix after their names to show my respect. In Microsoft Outlook, there is a field called 'Display as'.
    http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/contacts/contact-address-book-options-settings/
    Therefore, I can choose how the name will be shown in my messages. For example, Prof. Kim instead of Kim. However, as far as I know, there isn't such options in Mail app. Is there any way that I can modify the way of displaying names in the address field in Mail app?

    As far as I can determine, that is only how you see the email address, not how it is sent.
    You can set up Prefixes and Suffixes in Contacts using the Add Field submenu of the Card menu:
    If you use the Edit Template... command, you can choose to always have the Prefix and Suffix show on new cards.
    However, I don't think Mail uses anything but First, Last for addressing emails.
    You can override the behavior by manually with:
    Prefix First Last Suffix <[email protected]>

  • My forwart text feature on IOS 8 keeps disappearing and the only way I know how to make it re-appear is by powering off and on my phone, is there another way to fix this feature?

    my forward text message feature on IOS8 keeps disappearing and the only way I know to make it re-appear is by powering off and on my phone. Is there any other way to fix this?

    I should also point out that when I connect my iPhone, it DOESN'T appear as a connected drive on the desktop. Not sure how this can be so, since the iPhone also has a drive and also functions as an iPod if I want it to. I must have changed some setting to achieve this non-appearance, but don't remember what I must have done.
    What's the secret?

  • After my computer has been asleep and I touch my trackpad, it wakes enough to show my icon but not enough to acknowledge my keyboard or trackpad so I can type a password.  It seems the only way to make it work it to turn it off the back button.

    After my computer has been asleep and I touch my trackpad, it wakes enough to show my icon but not enough to acknowledge my keyboard or trackpad so I can type a password.  It seems the only way to make it work it to turn it off the back button.

    The reason, I included the annotation that I'd upgraded my Itunes, (On my Computer) is B/C in many forums - the very first question, *HELPERS* ask, is. "Do you have the latest version of Itunes downloaded on your computer." I wanted to knock out any obvious replies.
    Now-  "DO YOU have any idea,"... how your UNHELPFUL remarks, do absolutely nothing but hurt others that might not have the EXPERIENCE you have? How do you expect people to know things without asking questions? Whew! RUDE!!

  • I forgot my Apple ID security question answers and cannot contact iTunes support by phone. The only way I can ask for help is via email. How can I make that happen?             Thanks

    Hi! So I haven't used iTunes in a few months but I just got an iTunes gift card and want to make a purchase. iTunes redeemed it just fine but now that I want to make a purchase I am having problems. I can't remember my security question answers and iTunes is requesting them. I have two other verified emails but the are NOT rescue emails. I can't contact iTunes over the phone because my phone lines are out and are going to be out for a long time. The only way I can contact them is by email. How can I do this? Is there an easy way to just reset all my security questions? Please help a girl out. I just want my music!
    Thanks so much

    it has worked fine no problems till i updated it i tried restoring itwith my old backup but it doesnt move the ios back so it just keeps on craching when i try to unlock it

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I was updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 7 and while updating there was an error and the only way toturn it back on is restoring it. is that the only way?

    I was updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 7 today and before I did, I backed my phone up into iCloud. Then while it was updating an error occured and now itunes is telling me the only way to power up my phone is to restore the whole device. Is it possible to power up my phone without restoring the whole device? Or without loosing everything?

    Not if the error says to restore in iTunes. You should have made a backup before the update, so you should be able to restore to that backup. But with the device in recovery mode as it is, there is no way to backup anything at this time. If you did not make a backup before updating then you can only restore to your latest backup, whenever that was. If no backup at all, then you will have to restore the device as new, losing everything.

    Since I have the newest version of itunes, I can't back up like normally. The only way is to considilate files and then put them on an external drive which I don't have. Are there any other options? If I can't back up to a disc like I used to, can I instead just keep everything on my ipod and then if I have to get a new computer or something just download all my songs from the ipod to my new computer's itunes? Will that work? Will I still be able to keep all my songs that way?

    I'm going to assume the consolidating files does not work due to hard drive space limitations.
    Since you're moving to Windows 7, have you tried using the Windows files and settings transfer utility?  That will move everything for you to the same location on the new computer, it also allows some control over what actually gets moved.
    Alternatively, if you know the location of all of the media, it can be manually moved by copying it from the old computer to the new computer in the same location.
    Also, using the Apple article on moving the library, take a slight twist on what it says.  Move the iTunes library to the external drive, update the settings in iTunes to reflect the library being on the external drive, then consolodate it.
    The options are endless for moving the library... it simply takes a little effort to make it happen and possibly a twist on existing "standard" methods depending on your unique situation.

  • When we miss a call, the "Slide to Unlock" doesn't respond to touch. The only way out is to have someone call your iphone and then "Slide to Answer" will respond and once u end the call it will start responding to "Slide to Unlock" this started happening

    In your first post you mention you have done a reset and a restore. Those are the last two processes in the user troubleshooting. If those do not work, then the last thing is to go to the Genius Bar. You say you went to Apple and they opened the phone and re-seated the connectors? That sounds unusual, because if there was a hardware issue,they would replace the hardware. You say you cannot get a replacement, is that because you are out of warranty? An out of warranty replacement is only $199 plus tax. It seems to me since you mention the fact you need to press hard to get the screen to react there is something going on with the hardware. If this problem has been going on for over a year, have you been reporting this to Apple. You say you cannot get a replacement and you are on the second phone, I wonder why they are denying you a replacement. Is there something you are not telling us??

    If this is regarding your information line that says a stolen iPhone, Apple can do nothing to help you.  You must track the iPhone yourself using iCloud and must have turned on Settings > iCloud > Find My Phone before it was stolen.  If that was not done, there is no way to track the iPhone.
    Report the theft to the police and the cell service provider and ask if they can blacklist the iPhone so it cannot be used.  Change all passwords associated with acconts on the iPhone.

    iTunes places the .ipsw file here:
    OSX:
    ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates
    XP:
    C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates
    7 &Vista:
    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates
    Find and delete any and all .ipsw files on your computer. There should only be one, but delete all that you find. Next, disable ALL firewalls & security software on your computer. Connect your phone, iTunes running & restore from backup. Follow this by syncing your content back to your phone.
    This will force iTunes to re-download the .ipsw file, as I suspect yours is corrupt.

  • Universal Track Mode? off is the only way to make a bus (stereo) ?

    Is Universal Track Mode? (Off)unchecked, the only way to make a bus (stereo) ?
    In logic 9 is this the case?
    Can someone out there verify this please? Or am I just missing some thing?
    If Universal Track Mode is (ON)checked in the audio preferences tab, all of the bus sends in the send section and the bus output choice in the channel strip output section are only mono?? thanks for any reply.

    I've been using UTM On (the recommended choice) since Logic 4.x and my busses have always been stereo, just fine.

  • I am having a problem with email, when I delete messages from my Ipad, they come back into trash whether they are on my PC or not. The only way I can delete them is to to my providers site and delete everything there.

    I am having a problem with email. I can receive and send, but when I delete, the deleted messages return into either Trash or Bin or both whether or not I have deleted them from my PC.
    The only way I can get rid of them permanently, is to go into my area of my providers site(Sky) and empty all of the boxes there. I imagine it's a setting, please advise.
